I don’t know about you, but I’m SO GLAD it’s Friday! It’s been a heck of a week…but crafty friends, your day is about to LOOK UP! We’ve got a faboo GIVEAWAY from our friends at Jacquard.

Wanna see what you can win?

But not just ONE exciter pack- TWO of them! So you can share a pack with your best crafting buddy or just be greedy and keep all the goodness for yourself!

So, I know you want to know how to enter! Well you have up to THREE chances, by leaving up to THREE comments on this post. READ THE DIRECTIONS CAREFULLY.

Read the review of Pinata Inks that I wrote earlier this week, and leave a comment on this post telling me what was your favorite technique in using the inks (That’s entry #1.)

Go visit Jacquard Products on Facebook, and “Like” the page. It would be nice if you left them a note thanking them for the giveaway on CTD. : ) Let’s be appreciative, shall we? Leave me a comment back here saying that you’re their FB friend. AWWW! (That’s entry #2.)

For your last entry, simply subscribe to Jacquard’s YouTube Channel! They’ve got great videos demonstrating all kinds of great techniques. Of course, leave me a comment on this post for entry #3!

How cool would tinting glass fragments be? Awesome! I also love the results shown on the resin paper, shrink plastic and the white cardstock is so vivid! So many awesome ideas and uses for this product…I think I have fallen in love with it before ever giving it a try! Thank you for sharing the awesome review.

I checked out their youtube channel and I also decided to subscribe to it. Watched a couple of videos using discharge paste and discharge additive so white can be printed without having to color the background first…totally awesome products.

I liked them on Facebook and I let them know how awesome this giveaway is and also how awesome I think their Pinata inks are. I’m totally blown away with their products…definitely going to watch more videos on their youtube channel. Thanks for sharing this review on Pinata inks and for the awesome giveaway.

Thanks for the review/tutorial. I work with mixed media, paper and other objects. I also upcycle vintage jewelry. However, I’ve never used this type of ink. I love the fact that you can tint objects (i.e., rhinestones) that other paint won’t work with. I also was interested by the fact that it works on leather – some of my old purses need a bit of sprucing up!

I watched U tube and subcribed. Can’t wait to view more how tos.
I “liked” on FB
I read the review. If they are anything like the Ranger alcohol paints I will like them because I can use them on so many things other than paper.
I especially want to try the photo paper spritzed with ink and then thinner.

Pat- first off- in order to get 3 entries, you have to leave 3 separate comments. (The blog will select a comment at random & I don’t want you to miss out!)

Secondly, yes- like the Ranger ones, PiÃ±ata inks are alcohol-based.

Lastly, you do NOT want to spritz the inks with water OR “thinner.” Use blending solution (Ranger’s product) Claro Extender (Jacquard’s product) or rubbing alcohol ONLY to extend/mix/clean up. Hope this clarifies it!

Thanks for sharing your videos on the Pinata alcohol inks. I bought some at a store closing and still have them in my box with the rest of the “other” alcohol inks, love the different colors and vibrance. What I don’t have is the “clean up” solution, but I usually use rubbing alcohol. Thanks for the chance to win! I already like Jaquard on FB and thanked them (which I will write in the next entry

I love being able to use them on metal and other non-porous materials, I have seen them used on utube and have wanted to get them, unfortunately I live in a fairly rural area and our stores do not carry them.

I loved the stamping portion of the video. I have used alcohol inks before but I have never used them to ink a stamp! Can’t wait to give that a try. I also enjoyed seeing you use a spray bottle for the rubbing alcohol/extender. It sparked a little idea for a swatch that I’m going to work on today. Thanks for the inspiration!

I love using alcohol inks with polymer clay, but I have limited experience using them with other materials. I think my favorite of the techniques you showed was the Frantage Fragments in a baggie — I’d love to give that a try. Thanks for hosting the giveaway! [Entry #1]

I’ve read your review and while I like all the techniques, I love that you can use them to color/tint rhinestones and I like how they work on the metal bottlecaps. And I love how they turned out on the glossy paper!! So vibrant!!

Loved all of the techniques you used in your review, but especially loved the way you can apply color to things like rhinestones. I admit, I always think of ink as something that is only used for stamping, but seeing all these other techniques gives me tons of new ideas! I was wondering, I use stamps on wood to make personalized pendants. I know you say these are better on glossy surfaces…but would they work on something like that?
